Any help with this question please?

Consider this equation.
c = ax – bx
Joseph claims that if a, b, and c are non-negative integers, then the equation has exactly one solution for x. Select all cases that show Joseph’s claim is incorrect.
A. a – b = 1, c ≠ 1
B. a = b, c = 0
C. a ≠ b, c = 0
D. a – b = 1, c = 0
E. a = b, c ≠ 0

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B.a=b, c≠0

C.a=b, c=0

D.a-b=1, c≠1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given is c = ax - bx. We can factor the right-hand side to obtain an equivalent equation which is c = (a-b)x

Let’s explore each answer choice given. We are looking for cases where there is no one solution for the equation.

A

a-b = 1 so the right-hand side becomes 1x and we have x=c. Since c is 0 we have one solution that is x=0

B

a=b so a-b =0 and the equation becomes 0=c but the answer choice says c does not equal zero. So in this case there is no solution. This is a correct answer to the problem.

C

This is the same as choice B but since C =0 both sides of the equation equal zero. We get 0=0 but notice that this is true no matter what the value of x is so this equation is called identity and any value of x will do so there isn’t one solution but rather infinitely many. This is another right answer.

D

Here a-b=1 so we end up with x = c and since c doesn’t equal one any value of x except 1 is a solution so there isn’t one solution but infinitely many. This too is an answer to the question.

E

Since a doesn’t equal b and since c = 0 we have (a-b)x = 0 so. Either a-b is zero but since a and b are different this can’t be or x is zero. This there is one solution: x=0.

From the above, the answer to the question is choices B, C, and D

Answers

Answer:

z = 28

d = 126

Step-by-step explanation:

20 = z-8

20+8= z-8+8

28 = z

d-21 = 105

d-21+21 = 105+21

d = 126

The value of variable d is 126 degrees and value of variable z is 28 in the parallelogram.

What is Parallelogram?

A parallelogram is a simple quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides.

We know that the opposite or facing sides of a parallelogram are of equal length and the opposite angles of a parallelogram are of equal measure.

So d-21=105

Add 21 on both sides

d=105+21

d=126

and 20=z-8

Add 8 on both sides

20+8=z

28=z

Hence, the value of variable d is 126 degrees and value of variable z is 28 in the parallelogram.

Complete the expressions that would make them a perfect square trinomial.
a.
x² – 8x+
b. x2 + 20x +
C.
x² – 16x +
d. x2 + 9x +

Answers

Answer:

a) 16

b) 100

c) 64

d) [tex]\frac{81}{4}[/tex][/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Perfect square trinomial:

A perfect square trinomial has the following format:

[tex](x \pm a)^2 = x^2 \pm 2ax + a^2[/tex]

a.

x² – 8x

[tex]x^2 - 8x = x^2 - 2ax[/tex]

So 2a = 8, a = 4. Then

[tex]a^2 = 4^2 = 16[/tex]

The perfect square trinomial is [tex]x^2 - 8x + 16[/tex]

b. x2 + 20x +

2a = 20, so a = 10

[tex]a^2 = 10^2 = 100[/tex]

The perfect square trinomial is [tex]x^2 + 20x + 100[/tex]

C.

x² – 16x +

2a = -16, so a = -8.

[tex]a^2 = (-8)^2 = 64[/tex]

The perfect square trinomial is [tex]x^2 - 16x + 64[/tex]

d. x2 + 9x +

[tex]2a = 9[/tex], so [tex]a = \frac{9}{2}[/tex]

[tex]a^2 = (\frac{9}{2})^2 = \frac{81}{4}[/tex]

The perfect square trinomial is [tex]x^2 + 9x + \frac{81}{4}[/tex][/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Ken grew 4/5 of an inch. 4/5=0.8

Sang grew 3/8 of an inch. 3/8= 0.375

0.8 > 0.375 so Ken grew more.

0.8 - 0.375 = 0.425

So, Ken grew 0.425 more inches than Sang grew. 0.425 is also the same thing as 17/40.

Two catalysts may be used in a batch chemical process. Twelve batches were prepared using catalyst 1, resulting in an average yield of 84 and a sample standard deviation of 3. Fifteen batches were prepared using catalyst 2, and they resulted in an average yield of 90 with a standard deviation of 2. Assume that yield measurements are approximately normally distributed with the same standard deviation.
(A) Is there evidence to support the claim that catalyst 2 produces higher mean yield than catalyst 1? Use alpha = 0.01.
(B) Find a 99% confidence interval on the difference in mean yields that can be used to test the claim in part (a). (e.g. 98.76).

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Let assume:

[tex]\mu_1 =[/tex] population mean for catalyst 1

[tex]\mu_2 =[/tex] population mean for catalyst 2

Then:

Null hypothesis: [tex]\mu_1 \ge \mu_2[/tex]

Alternative hypothesis: [tex]\mu_1 <\mu_2[/tex]

[tex]\alpha= 0.01[/tex]

By using MINITAB software to compute the 2 sample t-test, we have:

Two-Sample T_Test and CI

Sample    N     Mean     StDev      SE Mean

2              15      90.00     2.00      0.52

Difference = [tex]\mu_1(1)-\mu_2(2)[/tex]

Estimate of difference: -6.00

99% upper bound for difference: -3.603

T-test of difference: 0  (vs <): T-value = -6.22

P.value = 0.000

DF = 25

Both use Pooled  StDev = 2.4900

From above result

the test statistics = -6.00

p-value = 0.00

Decision Rule: To reject [tex]H_o\ \ if \ \ p \le \alpha[/tex]

Conclusion: Provided that p-value is < ∝, we reject [tex]H_o[/tex]. Hence, there is sufficient evidence to support the given claim.

b) From the MINITAB;
